Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The aims of this study are to determine the types and severity of previously undiagnosed sleep deficiencies in otherwise healthy Somali Americans, apply a research framework to define psychosocial, behavioral, environmental, and biological mechanisms mediating sleep deficiencies in Somali Americans, and examine the relationship between sleep deficiencies and increased blood pressure in Somali Americans.

---|---|
Healthy Somali Americans Somali Americans with no known history of hypertension, diabetes, or sleep disorders will have a 24 hour blood pressure monitoring and polysomnography. |
Diagnostic Test: 24 hour blood pressure (BP) monitoring
24-hour ambulatory BP measuring device and blood pressures will be measured every 20 minutes to half hour
Diagnostic Test: Polysomnography
Measurements will include electroencephalogram, electromyogram, electrooculogram, electrocardiogram, breathing patterns of chest and abdomen, nasal and oral airflow and oxygen saturation. Sleep stages and apneas will be scored in accordance with validated American Academy of Sleep Medicine standards.
